maybe i just have weird skin, but i usually just run water over it and pull. works in like 10 seconds.

I used to just leave it on for a couple of days. It feels cool and it's fun to play with. Then I'd just peel it off.

basically, nail polish remover will help a little.
I assume if you are an adult, and capable of posting here, you have the mental resources to get some.
You might buy some.
You might steal/shop lift some
you might know some girls
you might go out and meet some
etc....
so, with some planning, resolve, and some creativity you could get some acetone.

But, really, you will have to wait till the skin it is on dies and falls off, which may take a day.

Ahaha!--> So I guess your fingers are now superglued to your sandals? <--Ahaha!

Rubbing alcohol and a brillo pad usually works for me. That stuff not only sticks to your skin, but it burns as well.:Q Good luck, Skin-Graft-Boy!

<< put more on, but this time attach it to your tongue. >>



Actually, that might work. In order for the superglue to be liquid, it is dessolved in acetone. Once the aceton evaporates, it leaves a urethane residue which does the bonding. If you could somehow inject the superglue between your fingers, the still-liquid acetone might loosen the bond enough for you to pull your fingers apart. But be warned, you'd have to do it fast!

Soak your fingers in some vegetable oil for a little bit. Not sure if olive oil works, but good ole Wesson does!

You know that sounds funny but hospitals are using it to close wounds and it works quite well.
